Patent EP-1359666-A3 (EP)
Inventor: TRODD LANCE RHYS
IPC: H03G3/12
Filed: 2003-05-02
Abstract: A signal handling stage provides variable gain, for example for automatic gain control
functions, in a radio frequency tuner. The stage comprises a transconductance stage 1
having negative feedback via further transconductance stage 7. The output current of
the transconductance stage 1 is supplied to an AGC core 2, which steers the output
current between output loads 3 and 4 and loads for driving the transconductance stage 7
in accordance with an AGC voltage. The amount of negative feedback is therefore
varied in accordance with the AGC voltage. For relatively low gain, a large amount of
feedback is used and this improves the distortion performance. For relatively high gain,
the negative feedback is reduced but a good noise figure can be achieved.

Abstract: Before a phosphoric acid fuel cell (10) generates
electric energy, a cathode (26) is supplied with a hydrogen
gas (fuel gas) and air (oxygen-containing gas) to cause a
reaction between hydrogen and oxygen. At this time, the
hydrogen and the oxygen are caused to react with each other
under a condition in which the concentration of phosphoric
acid at the time the amount of water produced by the
reaction (liquid water) for reducing the concentration of
phosphoric acid and the amount of water evaporated from
phosphoric acid are in equilibrium is equal to or greater
than a reference phosphoric acid concentration which is
capable of keeping the fuel cell at a desired performance
level. The temperature of an electrolyte electrode assembly
(12) of the fuel cell (10) is increased by the heat which is
generated by the reaction.

Abstract: A two-axis fluxgate sensor has a driving pulse generating circuit which generates pulse signal and outputs as a driving signal, and X-axis and Y-axis fluxgates which are in proportional relation with each other. The two-axis fluxgate sensor generates voltage values of X-axis and Y-axis fluxgates corresponding to the magnetism which is generated from the driving signal, and a memory stores therein a neural network weight matrix. When the voltage values of the X-axis and Y-axis fluxgates are measured, a control unit compensates for the voltage values by using the neural network weight matrix which is stored in the memory, and computes an azimuth angle by using the compensated voltage values. An accurate azimuth angle can be obtained even at slopes.

Title: Method and data structure for random acces via a bus connection
Inventor: MONTALVO LUIS
IPC: G06F13/42
Filed: 2004-05-07
Abstract: A method for addressing cells in devices via an I2C bus
is suggested, in which the common addressing scheme is
supplemented by a 'Data Transfer Mode' byte. The 'Data
Transfer Mode' byte specifies the number of the address
and data bytes to follow the device addressing and
thereby allows for orthogonal and scalable addressing of
cells inside a device connected to the bus. The method is
fully compatible to the existing I2C standard for writing
to the slave device. Setting up and terminating a
connection between a master and a slave as well as
acknowledging receipt of a byte follows the standard.

Abstract: A musical information displaying apparatus is to display musical notes in progression along the time axis on a musical staff together with chords and words based on the respective event data contained in a music performance data file representing a musical performance. The chords are displayed at their event positions along the time axis in the open space above and nearest to the musical staff. If two adjacent chords would overlap in part when displayed at the same vertical level in view of the respective display lengths, the vertical position of the latter chord will be shifted to prevent overlapping. The character representing the root of the chord will be displayed in an enhanced font than the other characters of the chord name. Where the words are displayed in correspondence to the notes, the words are to be displayed primarily at the positions along the time axis corresponding to the notes. If two adjacent words would overlap in part when displayed in view of the respective display lengths, the horizontal position of the latter word will be adjusted to prevent overlapping. The right-justification rule is also introduced.

Abstract: A system enables a bi-directional communication device such as a modem to facilitate local communication between the modem and an attached PC as well as to enable the PC to conduct concurrent Internet and local communication. A bi-directional communication system employs a method for seamlessly communicating packetized data between different networks using hierarchical layers of communication protocols (e.g. including Internet Protocol (IP) and Media Access Control (MAC) layers). The method involves comparing a received IP packet destination address in a first protocol layer with a predetermined IP address to determine if there is an address match. Upon such an address match, a payload of the received IP packet is redirected from an Internet network to a local network (e.g. an Ethernet, HPNA or USB network) by substituting a second protocol layer address for a received second protocol layer address (e.g. a MAC address). In another feature, a second Application (e.g. peripheral control) is initiated to operate concurrently with a first Application (e.g. web surfing) in response to receiving the redirected payload data.
